In reply to the discussion: Student loans forgiven today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [View all]imavoter
(661 posts)45. my timeline was this
August: consolidated to make all my loans direct loans
November: consolidation completed
January: email from the Dept of Ed that I was eligible to have my loans forgiven. (the golden email aka golden ticket), but it didn't say how much would be forgiven.
February: Email from my servicer that ALL of my loans are forgiven. Both my servicer and the studentaid website are zeroed out.
I wasn't in PSLF, but they are considering from the time of the oldest loan to how much time has passed/number of payments, and by my rough math they even considered some of my time in forbearance.
You can also do SAVE with PSLF, too.
